Radical Faction of Johore

The Radical Faction was an informal grouping of radical politicians in the Johore Sultanate that was active from 1850 to 1914. The faction advocated the abolition of the absolute monarchy and the Islamic clerical institutions of Johore, replacing them with a radical and atheist bourgeois dictatorship. The Radical Faction's views were highly unpopular among the strongly-Muslim populace of Johore, and the party never held power.
